Boston Herald Washington chief Kimberly Atkins revealed during Monday’s The 11th Hour just how “really stung” she was by President Trump’s Pocahontas comment about Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren (Mass.) to the point that this one comment made for a “bad” and “sad day” for America. Really.

“I mean, as a person of color who’s been on the receiving end of racial slurs, to see the President go to that length and to not draw a line between using that in a partisan attack really was bad, not just optically, it was bad for America. It's a sad day today,” Atkins declared.
